If you have purchased items on LaceMarket before, you should have feedback for your transactions. The green number is positive feedback, while the red number represents negative feedback. In addition to your feedback on this platform, you also provide a link to external feedback. External feedback can be a link to your eBay transaction feedback, lolita live journal purchase feedback, or other similar platforms. Your positive transaction history is very important to potential buyers.
3. List an Item for Sale
To list an item for sale, select the Sell an Item link at the top of the page.
This is where you can put in the information to sell your desired item.
LaceMarket will request that the following information is added to your listing:
✓ Title of your item
✓ Primary Category
✓ Subtitle (Optional)
✓ Secondary Category (Optional)
✓ Main Description
You are also encouraged to add:
✓ Images of the Item
✓ Listing Details
For the listing details, you can accept bids, set a "Buy It Now" price, allow a use to make an offer on your listed item, starting price, shipping cost and the duration that the item will be listed for sale.
You can set a set amount for domestic and/or international shipping, offer free shipping, or recommend that buyers contact you for a shipping quote.
LaceMarket has very detailed options for your item. You are able to select the status of the item, brand, damage, lolita style, colors. You will want to be extremely accurate and truthful about the status of your item. Users want to know what they are buying, and you want positive feedback.
If you have a link to the listing for this item, you can put the URL in the reference link area! I find that lolibrary is the best place to find all of the information about the piece you are selling.
You can create the listing as a draft, or make it live in order to list your item.
